Review Summary

Café Milano is widely regarded as a legendary Montreal institution, celebrated for its authentic Italian coffee, delicious cannolis, and vibrant, old school atmosphere. Many patrons praise the fresh ingredients used in their diverse selection of sandwiches and pastries, often describing the environment as a welcoming and lively space perfect for social gatherings. While numerous visitors appreciate the consistent quality and efficient service, some recent reviews express concerns regarding a perceived decline in portion sizes, sandwich fillings, and general cleanliness.

Update 3: eat at the place. There is big parking across the street & the food is great when fresh.

Update 2: I don't know what happened but this is not the same place. There is no taste

Update: Tried chicken sandwich & Ferrero rocher cake next day & it was disappointing. The chicken was missing taste & the cake was gummy & chewy.

First time: Very tasty Italian sandwiches & desserts. I tried steak sandwich with fries that are served with chipotle mayo, Oreo cake & tiramisu. All tasty & at reasonable prices.

A classic. You cannot go wrong with either the chicken cutlet sandwich or the Milano special.

Its been nearly 15-20 years since I used to frequent Milano's. It used to be much smaller & run down. Kind of a greasy spoon type of place that made the best sandwiches & salads. Its a lot different now. Its been redone, doubled in size & has a modern cafe bistro vibe. I ordered the 7' chicken cutlet sandwich. The smaller chicken salad, an aranciata & cappucino. The bill with tip was $40. The sandwich was good, but small. The chicken cutlet & toppings much thinner than I remember. The salad also okay. The chicken a bit dry & the dressing not as good as I remember. It needed also salt, which was not provided on the tables. Everything tasted fresh. The coffee was amazing. I should have asked for chocolate on top of my cap. Very clean inside the resto but the bathroom was not. All in all, I enjoyed my meal. It was a blast from the past with a bit of nostalgia mixed with some disappointments.

Very loud little restaurant. Steak sandwich was tasty, though contained very little steak. Staff need to ask if want peppers on top as the chicken sandwich was too spicy for son. Desserts look delicious. Reasonably priced.

Back in the 90's, this was the best place to get an Italian sandwich in St. Leonard. Be it steak, sausage, veal, or chicken, the sandwiches were fresh, delicious & reasonably priced. No more as times have changed. I ordered a veal & a steak sandwich yesterday. Also ordered a cappuccino while I waited only for it to be served when my order was ready. Bread was very stale. Toppings were no longer generous as they once were.

I live for this place lol
They are open late & have a pretty simple but good menu.

The service is amazing the staff is very attentive & welcoming.
Always greet customers with a smile not ONE bad thing to say.

The food is very good. They serve salads, subs, desserts & coffees.

I always stick to the same thing it's a winner for me
The chicken salad is the best very fresh iceberg salad mixed with a balsamic dressing.

The cannolis are the best I've had anywhere like I have not found one place where they have better cannolis !!

Hot chocolate is very good as well

All around have never been disappointed there !!

Recommend to everyone
